Single-use plastic has become a huge burden on not only our earth but our oceans and their inhabitants, as well. And while people have created eco-friendly alternatives to plastic straws like metal, they aren’t biodegradable. However, one new rather innovative solution that’s recently popped up is a straw made out of grass that only grows in the Mekong Delta in Vietnam, called Lepironia articulata. The grass grows wild in the wetlands and is long with a hollow stem.
